I did different things to help me develope my confidence and self-esteem, especially when it came to doing hair and being a colorist. I made sure that I had alot of education and training. Building a solid foundation in hairstyling and hair coloring techniques through formal education or professiona training helped me boost my confidence.. I would practice and practice on friends and family. I felt like the more I practice, the more condident I became. I experimented with different hairstyles, textures and hair color, both on a mannequin or volunteer models.

I also seeked feedback. I would ask for constructive criticsim and guidance from experienced hairstylist or clients to improve my techniques and learn from their expertise. I believe that positive deeback can reinforce your confidence, while constructive criticsim help you grow and refine your skills.
